CNET UK has put together an amazing animated video which takes a look at the history of the iPhone, from the first mobile phone call to Apple’s new custom A4 & A5 chips, as well as the important people and technology that have made the iPhone what it is today.
From CNET UK:
The iPhone might be at the cutting edge of technology but it took a long time and many innovations to get there. Take a trip through history and explore the people and technology that contributed to the iPhone becoming what it is today.
The video provides a lot of interesting comparisons, and even draws a link between Steve Jobs’ work at NeXT and the expansion of the internet to more than 1.8 billion users today. The full video is embedded below.
